Weekend Special part 1

The most beautiful discovery true friends make is that they can grow separately without growing apart.

Hiya

So remember when I went to London and stayed with my very good friend of 17 years? Well she and her sister came here for the weekend and I showed them a bit of Stockholm. So on Friday night we went to the Ice Bar here is Stockholm. FYI Absolut Vodka comes from Sweden. So off we went to get out party on in a -5 degree bar. We Namibians, we go hard like that.

We doned capes, gloves, paid our entrance and were ushered in. Then we and about +20 other tourists (I think) took pictures, waited for our drinks and danced. The music was great although it just goes to show how old I am or how sad I am. I didnt know one song from the next. I mean, there were teenagers (older than 18) and old folks all dancing and singing to the music and your's truly didnt even know one singer or song. Gone are the days of just being able to know the song from just the first few beats. Anyhooooo our little party lasted for 40 minutes and then we all were ushered back out and then next group went in. Then we went out for a bit and just walked around until we came home.

Come back for part 2...... But first here are pictures.

The bar

The drinks menu - first drink is included in the price

My drink - Icemolitian- yummyyyyyyy

Our three drinks

looks comfy, but its cold.

I am pretending to lick the ice- I really didn't. My face just looks like it came close.

Grinning because I am realizing that my butt might be getting wet.

Otherwise, it was a good night.

Ohhhhh, I am rocking a twist out from dry single braids that I had done in my hair for that week. They came out great. Even lasted through that weather!!!!!!!!

Don't lick that ice! This sounds Ab-Fab. My husband has a job interview for a university in Sweden and I hope he gets the job so we can go to this place! Also, the awesome health care, of course. It looks like you guys had a great time!

OMG!!!!!!! That is totally cool!!!!!! I hope he gets the job as well. You guys will enjoy Sweden and all it has to offer including fabulous health care. But just let me know, so I can give you the heads up on hair care to bring along. Because that may be easier than trying to find here. Do you know which University or Swedish town/city?
